First week: check!

I officially completed my first week of teaching high school in China. All in all, it was a fantastic week. My classes got better and better (as my script and confidence improved) and I had sooo many cute and funny exchanges with my students. One such experience: I had them playing a game where two teams competed to answer funny questions about me. Usually students are mortified to come to the front, but one student eagerly came up, answered my question and then said:
"Wait, now I have a question for YOU."
Me: Ok, what question? (shocked and curious)
Student: Do you know who is Sexy Boy?
M: Umm...no....who...?
S: WHAT? You do not KNOW?
M:....
S: I am SEXY BOY!

And the class erupts into hysterics. I tell Sexy Boy its nice to meet him and he triumphantly takes his seat. Its going to be a fun year. :)
